cue never won a war, you know.
But a couple of barrels of turnips
to have on hand in the fall
will do a heck of a lot more good
than a silver cup on the wall.
cause I'm just as bad as you.
But it's time we had some
cause we got a job to do.
We bet ter wake up and get to work
while we still got a home to protect,
or we'll all be doing the goose step
with a rope around our neck.
Hey, hey, what are we going to do?

Hey, hey, labor and capital, too.
Hey, hey, there'll be no profit and loss,
and there'll be no five o 'clock whistle to
Blow if we work for a Nazi, boss.
